We were having a family get together in Titusville one year and we were walking along the sea wall and docks and a momma and baby were looking for water, so I turned on a hose and gave them a drink.
Fuss 😂👍
Lapping up all that exhaust and Petro in the water😮
So cute! 🤗
Sadly many manatess are hurt and killed by boats becasue they seem to have lost any fear of being near them
Lower the props manatees don’t pay taxes
How beautiful ❤
No wonder y they get hit associate motors with water
My uncle use to get a hose turn it on and they come get a drink
So cute ❤❤❤❤
That water appears to be the cooling water discharge from the engines. The engines suck in water from wherever they are and circulates through the engine to cool it. The water discharge is warmer.
I've been trying to comment that they keep disappearing
My comment disappeared we were in Florida they had to stop the boat races because one of these guys was in the water they're adorable
These guys are so cute they had to stop the boat races once because there was one in the water down south in Fla
A hose would be much better
Thats water from the exhaust. Give him a cigar while your at it
Yea thats so cool
GET OUT OF FLORIDA
THAT ANIMAL is dieing for fresh water and YOUR making him drink exhaust water fron the engines instead of giving him clean water from a hose. Your idiots
Such a happy manatee..
I saw them swarm or what ever by main st bridge jax.
Ahhh so cute 😍 ❤
Wanting different flavors grease oil flavor water 😂
Love Love Love Manatees...So these Creatures can only go 1~2 weeks without freshwater, while they roam for food in Saltwater & Brackish Water to find their necessary 100~200 lbs of Aquatic Plants Daily.
Looks like Happy hour everyday at my house! Cudjoe key
What contraption is the animal floating around? <br>What is that?
Gentle giants! Thank you fir being kind ...❤
Sooo sweet but dangerous for the walrus
Only in América
Humanity could learn alot from a peaceful Manatee❤ but even much more from the King of Peace, LORD JESUS ❤MARANATHA ❤
It’s cute, but I have a time understanding why is drinking he or she lives in the water.
he's short on water, gotta get it from the boat XD
How did Spain become a spokesperson for the Chinese government? Why did Spain vote against China's electric vehicle proposal? China CATL and Stellantis Group have collaborated to build a large battery factory in Spain. To bypass the tariffs imposed by the EU on Chinese batteries!
If you stick your hose down there they can drink that is actually much better manatee etiquette than letting them drink hot motor water
Manatees love fresh water
As i stood I stood on a sandbar in the waters of St. Pete, looking into the water and only thinking sharks, a huge dark shape surfaced next to me. My first intro to the manatee! I pooped a little.
They actually really appreciate fresh water. Instead of being treated like trash.
How do I install the manatee attachment to my boat
Just learned recently that need fresh water to drink. I wish I get Fl to swim with them. ❤
I'm a native Floridian, and I adore Manatees! If y'all ever get the chance, go snorkeling with the Manatees! They are so stinking sweet and the babies are beautiful❤
Barbara, mantee, you are the one for me…
Where do they go to get fresh water if not from us?
Love these guys. Gentle giants of the sea
An surprised sheriff didn't killed it saying it was attacking them or they were fear of there life trying to damage the boat
It's illegal to give manatees fresh water due to the marine mammal protection act. It changed their natural behavior and lures them closer to dangerous boats! So manatees have to seek out freshwater ever day. They also get some hydration from plants. Poor things,!
They love fresh water and lettuce!
They apparently love fresh water. Last time I was down to the Florida Keys, a friend that lives down there had a dock and one came up, he said to grab the hose and give it water, in a couple of mins 3 of them were there drinking from the hose. It was absolutely amazing!
I know your not supposed to give them fresh water because they don't want them to become dependent on humans, but it still sucks. They are so gentle and slow.
Creo queria agua fresca 🎉
annnnd? this is why that boats blades are suppose to have protective cages around them .......arrest that moron and put him in prison for 5-10 years......
The good stuff 🥃👍🏻
They do this because people give them fresh water. Some people even keep a garden hose at a trickle for them in the intercostal because its all salt water. No fresh water for them.
They need FRESH WATER to Drink. They can't drink sea water. OCEAN COWS ❤️🙏🖖
They always been my favorite. When I was a kid my grand mother lived in the keys she would take me out side and let me feed them the would come right up to us at the dock and I think I would feed them lettuce .
Happy manatee! Wants to play 😂
All of a sudden I need a drink of water too.😅
